    Had a virus, cleaned up, now I can't save changes to homegroup setting


    Just like the title says, whenever I click save it just takes me back a screen.
    I can change the password, and I can leave and create the homegroup, but I still cannot change any settings including advanced settings.
    This is on a friends laptop, it is windows 7 ultimate 32 bit.

    try running a secure file check, it's possible the virus damaged some system files.
    SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

    I did sfc /scannow in an elevated command prompt. It ran all the way, and than the cmd prompt closed. I did open it from typing cmd and opening a command prompt, so I'm not sure what that means.
